Whenever I use a flash memory drive on my OS X machines, it gets all those additional OS X files on it that I don't really need, especially for my car stereo which doesn't ignore files that start with "." like it probably should. Anyone know of a utility that can clean all that crap off of a removable drive?
Easy way to remove the .DS_STORE and other hidden OS X files from Flash Drive?
